Sinai & The Law

Any thing that is devoted to the Lord, whether it be man, or beast, or field, shall not be sold: neither may it be redeemed. Whatsoever is once consecrated shall be holy of holies to the Lord.

And any consecration that is offered by man, shall not be redeemed, but dying shall die.

All tithes of the land, whether of corn, or of the fruits of trees, are the Lord's, and are sanctified to him.

And if any man will redeem his tithes, he shall add the fifth part of them.

Of all the tithes of oxen, and sheep, and goats, that pass under the shepherd's rod, every tenth that cometh shall be sanctified to the Lord.

It shall not be chosen neither good nor bad, neither shall it be changed for another. If any man change it: both that which was changed, and that for which it was changed, shall be sanctified to the Lord, and shall not be redeemed.

These are the precepts which the Lord commanded Moses for the children of Israel in mount Sinai.
